5 Tips for Success Tips 3-4

Tip 3: Research

Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledge sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be demonstrating initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides. Going the extra mile in your research elevates your achievement 10-fold.

Tip 4: Use a Dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes it is difficult. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to research and find the definition. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Student Successful Statement
“Be always sure you’re right, then go ahead.”
Davy Crockett

This quote expresses the concept of reassurance of ones decisions. You should always be sure of your decision and be able to justify your motive for any action that you are about to commit. Many have their own definition of a correct action, but should understand if others see it as correct. Many fail to recognize the beneficial and correct aspect of their motive. For example, if a boy hit another boy and is punished and when asked for his motive he tells the teacher/ caretaker that the boy took his pencil will that really justify for his violent action? I believe an action should be correct and not done for the benefit of one sole person, but should be beneficial for many.
